"Out of Africa" is a memoir by Isak Dinesen, the pen name of Karen Blixen, detailing her experiences living on a coffee farm in Kenya from 1914 to 1931. The narrative reflects her deep affection for the African landscape and its diverse peoples, including the Kikuyu and Masai tribes. The story is interspersed with her interactions with local communities and her commitment to addressing their needs, showcasing her role as a mediator in tribal disputes and her efforts to advocate for their rights during colonial rule.
